TESLA guitarist Dave Rude was interviewed on the August 13 edition of "The Signals Of Intuition" show on 99.1 CJAM-FM. Topics discussed include Dave's early musical influences and career, auditioning for TESLA, recording "Real To Reel", "Forevermore" and TESLA's upcoming material, as well his new solo album, "The Key". You can now listen to the chat in the YouTube clip below.

Released on June 4 via Rat Pak Records, "The Key" is a 10-song, riff-laden extravaganza that captures the true spirit and essence of American rock and roll music.

Produced by Marc Kapetan, "The Key" showcases both Dave's solid guitar playing skills and unique songwriting ability. Along with bassist Marco Guzman, drummer Josh Schmidt and Dave's signature guitar style, this release offers up a straight-forward mix of hard-rockin' cuts that will satisfy any and all fans of the genre.
